6.0.1 is for bug fixes only, not for new features. So the usability
improvements stay in the 6.1 branch. This improves stability in the
release branch by stopping new features from introducing new bugs
(unnoticed side effects).

e.g. "GRASS does not compile with gcc 4.0" is a critical fix. "Nicer
font rendering for d.paint.labels" isn't.
